(SAN DIEGO) - Shannon Eastin became the first woman to officiate an NFL game Thursday in the San Diego Chargers' 21-13 preseason win over the Green Bay Packers. Serving as the line judge, Eastin will have her hat and whistle put into the Pro Football Hall of Fame. Chargers starting running back Ryan Mathews suffered a broken clavicle in the opening quarter following his only carry of the contest, a five-yard run. He will have surgery Friday and is expected to miss 4-to-6 weeks. The third-year Fresno State product rushed for 1,091 yards and six touchdowns a year ago. Philip Rivers, who saw limited action, completed 3-of-5 passes for 37 yards with a touchdown and interception for San Diego, which has missed out on the postseason in each of the last two years. Also playing three series, Aaron Rodgers was just 2-for-8 for 16 yards and an interception for Green Bay, which went 15-1 last season but lost to the New York Giants in the NFL Divisional playoffs. The Packers entered the contest with 18 players not in uniform, including wide receiver Greg Jennings. The Chargers built a 14-0 advantage late in the second quarter. Following a Rodgers fumble on Green Bay's opening possession, Rivers found Antonio Gates for a 23-yard touchdown to conclude a brief two-play drive. Jarrett Lee, who threw for 235 yards and a touchdown, hooked up with Vincent Brown for a 27-yard TD pass with just over three minutes to go in the second quarter. The Packers answered right before the half when Randall Cobb hauled in a three-yard score from Graham Harrell, making it 14-7 at the half. Marc Tyler's one-yard TD plunge early in the fourth made it 14-13, but Green Bay was unsuccessful on its two-point try. Curtis Brinkley ran it in from a yard out with 1:56 to play, extending the San Diego edge to 21-13. Tyler fumbled the ball on Green Bay's final drive and Bront Bird recovered to seal the San Diego victory.

(GREEN BAY) - Rookie Brandon Weeden completed 12-of-20 passes for 118 yards and the Cleveland Browns defeated the Green Bay Packers, 35-10, on Thursday at Lambeau Field. Weeden bounced back from a lackluster preseason debut, in which the 22nd overall pick threw for 62 yards and an interception over three series in a win against the Lions. On Thursday, the 28-year-old played the entire first half and departed with a 16-7 lead. He put the Browns in position for three Phil Dawson field goals -- of 53, 47, and 52 yards -- and also executed a 45-yard drive which resulted in Montario Hardesty's short touchdown plunge. Hardesty fumbled on the game's first play from scrimmage but finished with 45 yards on 12 carries. Brandon Jackson added 14 carries for 35 yards and a touchdown. Colt McCoy was an efficient 4-of-6 for 58 yards in a backup role for Cleveland. Aaron Rodgers threw a 20-yard touchdown pass to Jordy Nelson on the Packers' first drive and finished 6-of-11 for 59 yards in one quarter of action. Graham Harrell, who figures to replace the departed Matt Flynn as Rodgers' backup, struggled on Thursday. The Texas Tech product completed 12-of-24 passes for 100 yards and two interceptions -- one of which was returned for an 38-yard touchdown by David Sims. Harrell was also whistled for intentional grounding on the end zone, which resulted in a safety. Mason Crosby made a 42-yard field goal in the fourth quarter for the Packers and Jeff Wolfert responded with a 34-yarder to cap the scoring.

(CINCINNATI) - Aaron Rodgers ran for two touchdowns on Thursday as the Green Bay Packers knocked off the Cincinnati Bengals, 27-13, in preseason action. Rodgers ran for 52 yards on six carries and threw for 154 yards and an interception on 12-of-22 passing in the first half, while backup Graham Harrell threw for 26 yards on 5-of-12 passing. Marc Tyler ran for 46 yards on 12 carries and Greg Jennings caught two passes for 37 yards. Mason Crosby kicked two field goals in the victory for the Packers. Andy Dalton threw for 40 yards on 5-of-17 passing and ran for 36 yards, while Bruce Gradkowski hit on 7-of-12 through the air for 61 yards and a touchdown. Green Bay opened the scoring on their second possession of the game as Rodgers capped a five-play, 57-yard drive with a 12-yard scamper to the end zone. The Packers extended their lead to 14-0 on their next drive as Rodgers took his team 69 yards in seven play and finished it off with a five-yard touchdown scramble. Mike Nugent put the Bengals on the board on their ensuing touch as he banged a 42-yard field goal through the uprights. The Bengals offense capitalized on good field position after picking off Rodgers as Nugent was good from 30 yards out to pull Cincinnati with 14-6 early in the second quarter. The Packers offense took the ball 51 yards in 11 plays on their next drive and Crosby connected on a 46-yard field goal to make it 17-6 at the half. The Bengals cut the deficit to 17-13 late in the third quarter as the Cincinnati defense recovered a fumble and Gradkowski hit Marvin Jones with a 15-yard touchdown strike just one play later. Crosby gave the Packers a 20-13 lead midway through the fourth after he booted through a 36-yard field goal. The Green Bay defense capped the scoring when Jamari Lattimore intercepted a Tyler Hansen pass and brought it back 27 yards for the score.

(GREEN BAY) - Graham Harrell threw for 223 yards and two touchdown passes on Thursday and the Green Bay Packers defeated the Kansas City Chiefs, 24-3, in the preseason finale for both teams. Harrell, who entered training camp as the favorite to replace departed backup Matt Flynn, closed his otherwise shaky preseason on a high note. The former practice-squad player completed 13-of-15 passes without an interception. He threw a 17-yard touchdown pass to Alex Green and also hit Jarrett Boykin for a 12-yard score. Green added a two-yard touchdown run while Cedric Benson had 11 yards on four carries. Aaron Rodgers completed 1-of-2 passes for five yards in limited action and Mason Crosby hit a 37-yard field goal for the Packers, who open the regular season Sunday, Sept. 9 at Lambeau Field against the San Francisco 49ers. Brady Quinn took the majority of the snaps for the Chiefs and threw for 83 yards and an interception on 6-of-12 passing. Nate Eachus led Kansas City's run-heavy attack with 21 carries for 99 yards. Shaun Draughn added 58 rushing yards and Peyton Hillis had 46. Matt Cassel completed one pass for nine yards and Jamaal Charles had three rushes for 12 yards. Ryan Succop hit a 26-yard field goal for the Chiefs, who open the regular season Sept. 9 at Arrowhead Stadium against the Atlanta Falcons.

(GREEN BAY) - David Akers made three field goals, including an NFL record-tying 63-yarder, as the San Francisco 49ers made a strong case as the early team to beat in the NFC with a 30-22 win over the Green Bay Packers at Lambeau Field. The Packers had won 13 straight regular season home games, but rarely resembled the juggernaut that amassed a franchise-record 560 points during last year's 15-1 campaign. Rather, it was the 49ers who showed last season's 13-3 record and run to the conference championship game was no fluke. Alex Smith threw for 211 yards and two touchdowns on 20-of-26 efficiency for San Francisco (1-0), which had lost nine straight meetings with the Packers (0-1). Randy Moss, signed in the offseason after retiring for a year, caught four passes for 47 yards and a TD, while Frank Gore ran for 112 yards and a score on 16 carries in the win. Aaron Rodgers, the reigning league MVP, tossed for 303 yards with two touchdowns and one interception while completing 30-of-44 attempts. Randall Cobb totaled 77 yards on a team-high nine catches and returned a punt 75 yards for a TD with 11:16 remaining in a highlight-filled fourth quarter.

(SEATTLE) - Golden Tate was ruled to have come down with a Hail Mary pass in the back of the end zone on the final play of regulation to give the Seattle Seahawks a 14-12 victory over the Green Bay Packers on Monday. Green Bay's M.D. Jennings looked to have the ball clutched to his chest with Tate having just his arms on the ball while lying underneath the defender. Two of the replacement officials raced over to the pile of players to make the call, but one signaled interception while the other signaled for a touchdown. The play was then ruled a touchdown, and video replay did not overturn the call despite Jennings seeming to have control of the ball. "I've never seen anything like that in all my years of football," Packers coach Mike McCarthy said. "It was the most unusual football game I've ever been a part of." The catch was Tate's second score of the game. He finished with 68 yards on three receptions. Russell Wilson completed 10-of-21 passes for 130 yards and two touchdowns for Seattle (2-1). Marshawn Lynch carried the ball 25 times for 98 yards in the win. "It's time for this to be over. My hats off the these officials, they're doing everything they can to do as well as they can, but it demonstrates how difficult it is," Seahawks coach Pete Carroll said. "It takes years and years of experience to pull it off properly and in a timely fashion, and it's time for it to be over. The league deserves it, everybody deserves it." Aaron Rodgers went 26-for-39 through the air for 223 yards for the Packers (1-2). Cedric Benson finished with 45 yards and a touchdown on 17 carries, while Jermichael Finley paced all Green Bay receivers with 60 yards on four receptions. The Packers took their first lead of the game with 8:44 left in the contest when Benson was able to just break the goal line from 1-yard out, making it a 12-7 contest following a failed two-point conversion. Jerron McMillian intercepted a tipped Wilson pass on the first play of the ensuing drive, but a roughing the passer penalty on the play gave the ball back to Seattle. The Seahawks were later faced with a 1st-and-25 at their own 43-yard line and were able to get out of the hole with a defensive pass interference penalty on Sam Shields, moving the ball to the Packers' 25. After Lynch converted a 4th-and-2 with a 3-yard rush to place the ball inside the red zone, Seattle was forced to try for another fourth-down conversion, but Tate could not get a handle on a pass in the left corner of the end zone to turn the ball over on downs with 1:54 remaining. The Packers could not run out the clock, though, and Seattle regained possession at the Green Bay 46-yard line with 46 seconds left to play. Wilson hit Sidney Rice for a 22-yard gain on the second play of the drive to move the ball deep into Packers territory, and Wilson would throw three straight incompletions to set up the controversial finish. "It was awful," Rodgers said about the final call. "Just look at the replay, and then the fact that it was reviewed is awful."

(GREEN BAY) - Aaron Rogers threw for 219 yards and a score, punter Tim Masthay added a 27-yard touchdown pass and the Green Bay Packers defeated the Chicago Bears, 23-10, on Thursday in an NFC North showdown at Lambeau Field. Rogers completed 23-of-32 passes with an interception and a 26-yard, fourth-quarter touchdown pass to Donald Driver as the Packers (1-1) bounced back from a 30-22 season-opening home loss to the San Francisco 49ers. Cedric Benson rushed for 81 yards on 20 carries in the win and Masthay hit Tom Crabtree with a shovel pass to successfully convert a fake field goal attempt in the second quarter. The Bears scored 41 points in a season-opening win over the Colts, but were largely held in check on Thursday. Jay Cutler completed just 11-of-27 passes for 126 yards with a touchdown and four interceptions and was sacked seven times -- 3 1/2 by Clay Matthews. Offseason acquisition Brandon Marshall, who had 119 yards and a touchdown on nine receptions in Week 1, didn't make a catch until the fourth quarter and finished with two grabs for 24 yards. Matt Forte had 31 yards on seven carries for the Bears (1-1) before departing in the third quarter with an apparent ankle injury.

(GREEN BAY) - The regular referees are back, right? Less than a week after being robbed by the replacement refs in 14-12 loss at Seattle, the Green Bay Packers endured another sloppy finish and held on for a 28-27 win over the New Orleans Saints on Sunday at Lambeau Field. Aaron Rodgers threw four touchdown passes for the Packers (2-2), including a go- ahead, 11-yard strike to Jordy Nelson with seven minutes remaining. After Nelson's grab, Darren Sproles fumbled the ensuing kickoff, but was ruled down by contact. Out of challenges, the Packers were forced to accept the botched call, and the Saints took advantage with a march to the Green Bay 25. There, Garrett Hartley drilled a 43-yard field goal, but this time the newly reinstated officials got it right with a holding call on David Thomas, which negated the kick. After an encroachment call, Hartley pulled his 48-yard attempt wide left and the Packers took over with 2:49 left. They were able to run out the clock and secure the win courtesy of a tough catch by James Jones on 3rd-and-3. Rodgers finished with 319 yards and an interception on 31-of-41 passing, while Cedric Benson ran for 84 yards on 18 carries. Nelson caught eight passes for 93 yards, Jones added a pair of touchdown grabs and Greg Jennings scored in the second quarter before departing with a groin injury. Drew Brees completed 35-of-54 passes for 446 yards and three touchdowns without and interception for the Saints (0-4), who have dropped four straight to begin a season for the first time since 2007. With a 20-yard, first-quarter scoring pass to Marques Colston, Brees tied Hall of Famer Johnny Unitas for consecutive games with a touchdown pass (47).

(INDIANAPOLIS) - During a time of crisis for Chuck Pagano, the emotionally-jarred Indianapolis Colts gave him a reason to smile. Reggie Wayne caught 13 passes for a career-high 212 yards, which included the go- ahead touchdown with 35 seconds remaining, and the Colts downed the Green Bay Packers, 30-27. Mason Crosby had a chance to force overtime, but his 51-yard field goal with eight seconds to go hooked wide left. The Colts disclosed head coach Pagano's diagnosis of leukemia on Monday and the first-year head man is expected to be hospitalized six to eight weeks while undergoing treatment. Pagano, who turned 52 on Tuesday, will be treated with chemotherapy and drugs, according to his physician Dr. Larry Cripe. Offensive coordinator Bruce Arians, who was diagnosed with prostate cancer in 2007, will coach Indianapolis for the foreseeable future, although Pagano most likely won't resume his coaching duties this season. Andrew Luck threw for 362 yards on 31-of-55 efficiency with two touchdowns and an interception for Indianapolis (2-2), which trailed 21-3 at the half, but outscored the heavily-favored Packers 27-6 over the final 30 minutes. Aaron Rodgers completed 21-of-33 passes for 243 yards with three scores and an interception for the Packers (2-3), who defeated the New Orleans Saints last Sunday.

(HOUSTON) - Aaron Rodgers tied a franchise record with six touchdown passes and Green Bay looked like the Packers of old with a 42-24 rout of the previously unbeaten Houston Texans on Sunday night. Rodgers completed 24-of-37 passes for 338 yards for the Packers (3-3), who bounced back from a tough 30-27 loss to the Indianapolis Colts last week. Jordy Nelson caught nine passes for 121 yards and three touchdowns for Green Bay, which racked up 427 yards of total offense. Randall Cobb hauled in seven passes for 102 yards, James Jones caught a pair of TD passes and Tom Crabtree hauled in two passes for 62 yards and a score. Alex Green got the start at running back with Cedric Benson out with a left foot injury. Green carried the ball 22 times for 65 yards. Matt Schaub connected on 20-of-33 passes for 232 yards and two interceptions for the Texans (5-1), who came into Sunday as one of the two remaining undefeated teams in 2012. The Atlanta Falcons beat the Oakland Raiders earlier Sunday to improve to 6-0. Arian Foster carried the ball 17 times for 29 yards and two touchdowns for Houston, which will welcome the Baltimore Ravens (5-1) to town next Sunday.

(ST. LOUIS) - Aaron Rodgers completed 30-of-37 passes for 342 yards and three touchdowns, lifting the Green Bay Packers over the St. Louis Rams, 30-20. Rodgers had a passer rating of 132.2 for the Packers (4-3), who have won back- to-back games for the first time this season. Jordy Nelson caught eight passes for 122 yards and a touchdown for Green Bay, which racked up 402 yards of total offense. Randall Cobb hauled in eight passes for 89 yards and two scores. Sam Bradford connected on 21-of-34 passes for 255 yards, one touchdown and an interception for the Rams (3-4), who have lost two in a row. Steven Jackson carried the ball 12 times for 57 yards and a touchdown for St. Louis, which has lost four straight and seven of its last nine in the regular season to the Packers.

(GREEN BAY) - Aaron Rodgers threw a pair of touchdown passes, lifting the suddenly resurgent Green Bay Packers over the Jacksonville Jaguars, 24-15. Rodgers completed 22-of-35 passes for 186 yards for the Packers (5-3), who have won three straight and four of five since a brazen Monday night theft in Seattle in late September. Randall Cobb and Donald Driver caught touchdown passes for Green Bay, which was without wide receiver Jordy Nelson due to a hamstring injury. Alex Green carried the ball 22 times for 54 yards. Blaine Gabbert played through a left shoulder injury and completed 27-of-49 passes for 303 yards and a touchdown for the Jaguars (1-6), who have lost four in a row. Rashad Jennings started in place of an injured Maurice Jones-Drew and carried the ball 17 times for 59 yards for Jacksonville. He also caught six passes for 56 yards.

(GREEN BAY) - Aaron Rodgers threw four touchdown passes, two to Randall Cobb, as the Green Bay Packers kept their winning streak going with a 31-17 victory over the reeling Arizona Cardinals.Rodgers only completed 14-of-30 passes for 218 yards with an interception, but connected with Tom Crabtree on a crucial 72-yard score after the Cardinals pulled within seven late in the third quarter. Green Bay had a rare advantage in the running game, outgaining Arizona, 176-54, on the ground. The Packers (6-3) head into their much-needed bye week riding a four-game win streak. Already without several key players due to injury, Green Bay saw linebacker Clay Matthews (hamstring), wide receiver Jordy Nelson (ankle) and offensive tackle Bryan Bulaga (hip) all exit early. Arizona (4-5) is also off next week, but it must recover from a different kind of ailment -- a debilitating five-game skid after starting the season 4-0. John Skelton was 23-of-46 through the air for 306 yards with an interception and a touchdown pass to Larry Fitzgerald in defeat.

(DETROIT) - Aaron Rodgers had two touchdown passes, including the game-winner to Randall Cobb late in the fourth quarter as the Green Bay Packers took a 24-20 win over the Detroit Lions in an NFC North battle at Ford Field. Rodgers passed for 236 yards and an interception on 19-of-27 attempts with Cobb and Jermichael Finley each catching a score for the Packers (7-3), who have won five straight. James Starks had 25 carries for 74 yards while Mason Crosby missed two field goals, but did make one late for Green Bay, which is 2-0 in division play this season. Matthew Stafford had a rough day as he went just 17-for-39 with 266 yards and a touchdown along with two interceptions and a lost fumble for the Lions (4-6), who have dropped two straight and fell to 0-4 in division play this season. Calvin Johnson caught five passes for 143 yards and a touchdown.

Randall Cobb catches the go-ahead touchdown against the Lions on November 18th

Giants RB Ahmad Bradshaw drives in for a touchdown as the Giants routed the Packers on November 25th

(EAST RUTHERFORD) - Eli Manning threw three touchdown passes and the New York Giants dominated the Green Bay Packers, 38-10, in a battle between the two most recent Super Bowl champions. Ahmad Bradshaw carried the ball 10 times for 58 yards and a score for the Giants, who stunned the Packers in a NFC Divisional playoff contest last season at Lambeau Field. Bradshaw also caught two passes for 61 yards. Andre Brown rushed for 64 yards and a touchdown on 13 carries for New York (7-4), which snapped a two-game skid and holds a two-game lead over the Redskins and Cowboys in the NFC East. Rueben Randle, Hakeem Nicks and Victor Cruz caught TD passes. The news was not all good for the Giants, however, as Brown suffered a broken fibula in the fourth quarter. Aaron Rodgers connected on 14- of-25 passes for 219 yards, one touchdown and an interception for the Packers (7-4), who had a five-game winning streak snapped. Green Bay fell one game behind the Bears for first place in the NFC North. Chicago beat Minnesota by a 28-10 margin on Sunday.

(GREEN BAY) - Aaron Rodgers threw for 286 yards and a touchdown and the Green Bay Packers scored 13 unanswered points in the second half to rally for a 23-14 victory over the Minnesota Vikings at Lambeau Field. James Starks accounted for the go-ahead score with a 22-yard run late in the third quarter and Mason Crosby kicked three field goals to help Green Bay (8-4) bounce back from last week's 38-10 loss at the New York Giants, which ended a five-game winning streak for the defending NFC North champions. Rodgers completed 27-of-35 passes with one interception for the Packers, who have now prevailed in five straight meetings with the Vikings and 10 in a row against divisional foes. Minnesota (6-6) was dealt its fourth defeat in five games despite a 210-yard, 21-carry effort from Adrian Peterson that included a career-long 82-yard touchdown run in the second quarter. The star running back eclipsed the century mark for the sixth consecutive contest, breaking a team record he had shared with Robert Smith. While Peterson was outstanding, Vikings quarterback Christian Ponder struggled. The second-year pro managed just 119 yards with a touchdown, while tossing two interceptions and hitting on 12-of-25 attempts.

(GREEN BAY) - DuJuan Harris rushed for a tiebreaking touchdown in the fourth quarter, and the Green Bay Packers seized sole possession of first place in the NFC North with a 27-20 victory over the Detroit Lions. Aaron Rodgers also ran for a score in the snow while completing 14-of-24 passes for 173 yards. The Green Bay quarterback did not throw a touchdown pass at Lambeau Field for the first time since Sept. 21, 2008, snapping a streak that had reached 35 games, the second-longest in NFL history. Randall Cobb had 102 yards on seven receptions for the Packers (9-4), who have won 11 in a row against divisional foes and moved one game ahead of Chicago in the North standings. Matthew Stafford finished with 264 passing yards and one touchdown for Detroit (4-9), but he threw one interception and had a fumble returned for a momentum-altering score.

(CHICAGO) - James Jones caught three touchdown passes from Aaron Rodgers and the Green Bay Packers wrapped up the NFC North with a 21-13 win over the Chicago Bears at Soldier Field on Sunday. Rodgers finished the game 23-for-36 for 291 yards for the Packers (10-4), who have won three straight and eight of their last nine to roll to their second straight division crown. Kicker Mason Crosby continued to struggle for Green Bay, missing both of his field goal attempts as he is now just 9-for-18 in his past seven games. Randall Cobb had six catches for 115 yards in the game. Jay Cutler passed for just 135 yards on 12-of-21 attempts with a touchdown and an interception for the Bears (8-6), who have lost three straight games and five of six to see their division title hopes end and have their postseason chances placed in jeopardy.

(GREEN BAY) - Aaron Rodgers threw for 342 yards and three touchdowns and also ran for another score, as the Green Bay Packers pummeled the Tennessee Titans, 55-7, on Saturday at Lambeau Field. Rodgers finished an efficient 27-of-38 passing to go with four carries for 11 yards, while Ryan Grant rushed for 80 yards and two touchdowns on 20 carries. James Jones finished with seven catches for 100 yards and a score, while Randall Cobb and Greg Jennings each hauled in a touchdown pass for the Packers (11-4), who have won four straight. The Packers, fresh off clinching their second straight NFC North Division title, are still vying for a first-round bye, but need to win next week in Minnesota and hope San Francisco loses to either Seattle later tonight or Arizona in their season-finale. Tennessee quarterback Jake Locker struggled all day, going just 13-of-30 through the air for 140 yards with a touchdown and a pair of interceptions in the setback, Tennessee's fourth in its last five games.

Minnesota Vikings kicker Blair Walsh, center, celebrates with teammates after kicking a game-winning 29-yard field goal on the final play

(MINNESOTA) - Adrian Peterson came up just short in achieving his goal. His team did not. The superstar running back fell nine yards shy of breaking Eric Dickerson's NFL record for most rushing yards in a season, but still put up 199 on a career-best 34 carries while scoring two touchdowns to help the Minnesota Vikings earn a berth in the NFC Playoffs with a thrilling 37-34 last-second victory over the Green Bay Packers. Peterson's final rush -- a 26-yard burst to the Green Bay 11 with three seconds remaining -- set up Blair Walsh's 29-yard field goal that snapped a 34-34 deadlock and earned Minnesota (10-6) the conference's No. 6 playoff seed after closing out the regular season with four straight wins. Walsh's kick also forced a rematch between the two NFC North rivals in next week's Wild Card Round, with Green Bay (11-5) denied a chance to claim the No. 2 seed and an opening-round bye after San Francisco defeated Arizona on Sunday. Exactly one year to the day of his surgery to repair a potentially career- threatening knee injury, Peterson finished his remarkable 2012 campaign with 2,097 rushing yards to become the seventh player in league history to surpass the 2,000-yard barrier. Christian Ponder aided Minnesota's cause by matching a personal best with three touchdown passes, including one to Peterson, while going an efficient 16-of-28 for 234 yards without a turnover. Jarius Wright finished with 90 receiving yards and a score on three catches for a Vikings squad that will reach the playoffs just one year removed from a 3-13 season. Aaron Rodgers threw for four touchdowns while amassing 365 yards on 28-of-40 passing for Green Bay, leading the Packers out of a 13-point first-half hole to tie the game twice in the fourth quarter. Greg Jennings hauled in two of Rodgers' scoring strikes while recording 120 yards on eight grabs.

(GREEN BAY) - Aaron Rodgers threw for a touchdown and the Green Bay Packers took advantage of a short-handed Vikings team to oust Minnesota from the playoffs, 24-10, in an NFC Wild Card game at Lambeau Field. John Kuhn had a rushing and receiving score for the Packers, who will play at San Francisco next Saturday at 8 p.m. ET in the divisional round. Rodgers completed 23-of-33 passes for 274 yards and the Packers tied a postseason NFL record by having 10 players make a reception. The Vikings played without starting quarterback Christian Ponder, who was inactive due to a right elbow injury. Ponder was hurt last Sunday in a regular season-ending 37-34 win over the Packers when he was hit by safety Morgan Burnett on a blitz. Joe Webb, who had taken just three snaps all season, started in Ponder's place and was erratic through the air. A sixth-round draft pick in 2010, Webb completed 11- of-30 passes for 180 yards with a TD and an interception. He also had seven carries for 68 yards. Adrian Peterson, who rushed this season for 2,097 yards, the second-most in a season in NFL history, had 99 yards on 22 carries. Peterson ran for 199 yards and a TD in the regular season finale.

(SAN FRANCISCO) - Colin Kaepernick set an NFL rushing record for a quarterback with 181 yards and scored twice as the San Francisco 49ers beat Green Bay, 45-31, in an NFC Divisional Playoff. Kaepernick, who was born in Milwaukee and grew up as a Packers fan, also completed 17-of-31 passes for 263 yards with a pair of scores to help the 49ers reach the NFC Championship Game for the second straight year. Incredibly, Kaepernick didn’t move into the starting lineup until November 19, when he replaced Alex Smith. Both of Kaepernick's TD passes went to Michael Crabtree, who had nine receptions for 119 yards. The performance by Kaepernick shredded the previous QB rushing record for any game, set by Michael Vick (173) in 2002. It was also the most rushing yards for the 49ers in their playoff history. The NFC West champion 49ers will play either Seattle or Atlanta in next Sunday's NFC Championship Game. The 49ers, seeded second, will host next weekend's contest if Seattle wins or could play the top-seeded Falcons on the road. Aaron Rodgers finished 26-of-39 for 257 yards with a pair of scores and an interception, but the NFC North champions were eliminated from the playoffs one week after beating Minnesota in the Wild Card round. One more win by the 49ers would send them to the Super Bowl for the first time since the 1994 season. They lost to the Super Bowl champion New York Giants in the NFC title game last year. The Packers (12-6) lost in the divisional round for the second consecutive year after winning Super Bowl XLV. Green Bay went into the game having won three consecutive playoff games on the road. The Packers’ all-time postseason record fell to 30-18.
